Why Are Ombligo's Services Important To Your Company?

  • Goodwill - Revenues generated from the sale of IT equipment are often earmarked for charitable contributions

Are Data Security And Environmental Liabilities Real?

  • In the next five years, more than 250 million computers will become obsolete in the U.S. alone. Currently, less than 15 percent of corporate IT equipment is processed through a proper IT equipment disposition program.
  • In a recent MIT study, 150 hard disk drives were purchased from online auction sites. Approximately 70% of these hard disk drives contained recoverable data - including company financials, credit card numbers, medical records, and sensitive e-mails.
  • EPA studies indicate more than two million tons of IT equipment, most of which contains toxic materials, are dumped in U.S. landfills each year.
  • Currently, eight states (CA, ME, MN, NH, RI, WA, NY, & MD) have established laws to protect the environment from the improper disposal of "used" and "out-of-service" IT equipment and more than 60 bills have been introduced in more than 40 states
